The heart's jubilant song of love
Caroling joyously and loudly 
Feelings sway in dance 
Love is a vibe
I can't retire.

Snowflakes falling to land 
of the caroling, 
whiten the coats of man, 
as they're traveling, 
from door to door singing how Christmastime began...

Bundled up, looking fit as a snowman 
Those brutal cold days late in December 
Caroling to buy gifts for my siblings
I wonder, do my siblings remember

Children caroling Christmas cheers
Ever enchanting eager ears
Snowballs slung spreading scenic snow
Blushful breezy breathing breaths blow.

Christmastime

Green evergreen trees - candles aglow
Family and friends - wreaths with red bows
Cookies and caroling - sugarplum dreaming
A babe in a manger - a star brightly beaming

The carolers came out of barns, sheds, houses, and out from under rocks.
They climbed out of baskets, boxes, barrels, and striped Christmas socks.
They came running to sing, and they made the prettiest sound of all.
But the audience began running away when we gave the mouse call....

memory overload
Christmas caroling
smell of ginger bead
colorful frosted cookies
elf on the shelf
scent of vanilla
striped candy canes
sparkling Christmas wreath
pointed holly with red bulbs
some mistletoe fun
white fur Christmas muff
shiny silver bells
nativity scene 
Jesus’ birthday

Christmas songs bring Joy to the World
Childhood memories are quickly unfurled
Many begin toe tapping, humming all day
Lou’s exuberant caroling with a hooray

Christmas music puts us in holiday mood
Reminding many of sweet happiest foods
We sing along amid our blinking lights
Reminding us of other Christmas delights...

Christmas Eve is coming 
Don't waste another minute
You can feel the festive air
I think we're almost in it

We'll have lots of friendly cheer
And lots of family
Mistletoe and caroling
Around the Christmas tree

Christmas Eve is coming
Nobody's feeling blue
The best thing about Christmas Eve
Is spending it with you...

Joy Encourages Soundness Upon Souls (JESUS).                                         Need a contest challenging poets to write what 
Jesus abbreviation stands for. 

Going Christmas caroling with Carolyn is the most 
fun thing to do of them all. Did you know that a 
dead Devon who once was a squire now lives in 
a shire in heaven...

'Tis that time again to bedeck the tree with decorations!

   Untangling the string of lights is one of my annual frustrations!

      Naughty words are said but when all is said and done, you'll,

         Happily declare that sans a Christmas tree it wouldn't be a Yule!

No visitors,
No holiday feast
No caroling carolers,
No Who'sville's Roast Beast,
Not a sound, but for crows,
No phone ringing, what goes?
Three cards, and two gifts,
Missing wallet, gone with girl?
Merry Christmas, my heart a'swirl
3PM and trailer park is empty,
I seem all alone
My last Christmas, I assure you,
My heart, my faith, has flown...

Wrapped in pretty paper,
Trimmed with ribbons and bows.
The grand gift of Christmas,
A babe in swaddling clothes.

From a manger to the cross,
Humble birth, so too the end.
There was no room in the inn,
Opens the greatest tale ever penned.

Now we celebrate His birthday,
With caroling and lighted tree.
A season filled with giving,
Yet, the grandest gift is free!...

Breathtaking build up
With Santa’s coming
Hoping for snowfall
Christmas caroling
And season’s greetings

An endless list
So much to do
Festive details
Invitations

Midnight mass
Excitement
In the air

Did it~
Survived

Whew!

“Peace on Earth”, the angels sing
Ringing out o’er all the Earth
In the light of wondrous star
Narrating the Savior’s birth.
Caroling the story,
Extraordinary!!

Of the glory of the King
Faithful Christians message bring.

“Prince of Peace” is God’s own Son.
Every year we celebrate
As the year is almost done,
Christ Child’s birthday on this date.
Expectantly for peace we wait....

The Woodland Goddess

Thy mystic news from out the Invisible
Would save all men, were they but content to dwell
In lowly station, proud to share the power
That shapes the world in secret, hour by hour.

Her rosy fingers touched the ancient words
And lo! they quivered with the ecstasy
Of crimson bloom, sun-glances, caroling birds,
On forested green island waking into glee.

R.J. Lindley,
April 17th, 1973...

How can I get the most points?
I scan the board
Flatgym 
What can I connect to?
If I add an e how many letters can I use?
Qisterm 
I find a place to put the Q to make a triple
Thirty points
oooeela 
I throw these tile back and pass
Caroling
Fifty extra points if I can find a place
Unfortunately I can’t
The perils and perks of Scrabble
I love the strategy though. Play this around four hours a day...

Christmas courts contentment, cheer
Contributes comfort, comity-
Commingling with the coming Christ.
Can celebrate with caroling,
Church choir chanting, candlelight.
Create commitments to cherish
Connection conceived with Christ.
Christmas cards and caring confirm
Charity, compassion, closeness-
Culled core of Christmas centerpiece.

Christmas eve arrived tonight
Upon it’s holy trek
Forthcoming at this time of year
A time to pause and reflect
A room laced with garland
A tree’s lights glistening bright
Caroling to be sung
Upon this holy night
Moments filled with laughter
And sounds of glowing cheer
Love and merriment shared
Of each one held so dear
These are just memories
That fills my heart with gloom
There are no tree or presents
To fill this empty room...

Paris at Christmas
city of lights for a week
streets decorated

Eiffel Tower lit
like a Christmas tree aglow
tourists staring up 

shoppers bustling crowds
bells ring; children caroling 
joy is everywhere

rosy-cheeked Santas
wrapping presents with ribbon
in department stores

light sprinkle of snow
sleigh ride through the Tuileries 
wrapped tight in blankets

Harold was the loudest singer in the caroler group.
Many got irritated at him, but when they reached a stoop.
The people inside heard them loud and clear.
Mostly because Harold’s loud singing voice was here.

We argued sometimes about tossing him out.
But he loved the caroling group, one said with a pout.
So we kept him in, until he got too old to come along.
Without him we were never in as great a spirit or as loud a song....
